Gent vs Club Brugge KV

A Champions' Play-offs clash with real title implications — Club Brugge trail leaders Union SG by just two points, making this trip to Gent's Planet Group Arena close to a must-win. The hosts sit fifth with 26 points, fighting to protect their own European ambitions. Club Brugge arrive in dominant form — eight wins from their last ten, including a 6-1 hammering of Mechelen. Nicolo Tresoldi leads the line with 13 goals while Christos Tzolis adds nine goals and a team-high 13 assists. Gent look shakier, managing four wins in ten and drawing a blank at Union SG last time out. Three injuries compound Gent's problems: Matisse Samoise, Maksim Paskotsi and Abdoul Ayindé are all sidelined. Top scorer Wilfried Kanga (10 goals) must shoulder the attack against a Club Brugge side unbeaten in five straight head-to-heads. With form, firepower and history aligned, the visitors look hard to stop. Our prediction: 1-2
